  • Merging black holes

    Combined images from Hubble and the Chandra X-Ray Observatory show two black holes merging in NGC 6240. Note the two bright spots near the center. NOT the neighborhood to be in

    A rather exciting place, if you are a subatomic particle. Anything else, and you're toasted and puree'd matter.

      How far is this occurance taking place, billion, trillion miles away? I sure hope so or we are all doomed to hell if the two black holes do merge and become one giant black hole with enough power to pull in our entire solar system!!!

            I look at them as cosmic snapping turtles - get too close and you're going to have a bad day.
